.45 ACP, 230 FMJ, 6.4 Unique powder.

I recently increased the powder charge to the 6.4 mentioned above. I went the range yesterday and fired 60 rounds with only one misfire.

When I looked down at the targets waiting on my bench, however, I did notice that there were a few grains of unspent powder. I'm assuming it's escaping as the round is ejected.

Any ideas?
